Overview
Mycobacterium szulgai is a species of Mycobacterium. It is a Scotochromogen and is currently ungrouped. It is known to cause skin infections.[1]
Treatment
Antimicrobial Regimen
- 1. in vitro susceptibility[2]
- M. szulgai is susceptible in vitro to most antituberculous drugs including Quinolones and newer Macrolides.
- 2. Pulmonary infection
- Preferred regimen: three- or four-drug regimen that includes 12 months of negative sputum cultures while on therapy
- 3. Extrapulmonary infection
- Preferred regimen: combination antituberculous medications based on in vitro susceptibilities for 4 to 6 months
